"My Own Best Friend" lyrics

"My Own Best Friend"

Too many cracks in the marble
Like sapphire diamonds in the rough
You know life's like a circle
Eventually, dust turns back to dust
Things you can't imagine
Remind you of what you've always had
Maybe they need to happen
So you know the worst ain't all that bad

So blow out the candle
Another year gone
Wishing to Heaven
To rewrite the wrongs
And I'll buy a new canvas
Turn a new page
Same old picture
Brand new frame
Ghost in the mirror
Tell me a lie
If I'm supposed to be here
Why do I cry?

And I'll take what's left
And build a bridge again
Oh, and I'll take the steps
To be my own best friend
My own best friend

Might have taken the long way
Praying there's proof up in the sky
Got high on the bad days
Met a man on the moon but I'm still halfway to Mars

And I'll take what's left
And build a bridge again
Oh, and I'll take the steps
To be my own best friend
And I might be down
But I'm not dead
Oh, and I'll take the steps
To be my own best friend
My own best friend
My own best friend

Ghost in the mirror
Tell me a lie
If I'm supposed to be here
Why do I cry?

And I'll take what's left
And build a bridge again
Oh, and I'll take the steps
To be my own best friend
And I might be down
But I'm not dead
Oh, and I'll take the steps
To be my own best friend
My own best friend
My own best friend

Why do I cry?
And I'll take what's left
And build a bridge again
Oh, and I'll take the steps
To be my own best friend
My own best friend
